Dan, I signed up for a lowendmac.net mail account, but there's no documentation on setting up my client. Does the system send out a confirmation email to the primary email I listed with instructions? best, -Hal On Thursday, August 14, 2003, at 07:38 AM, Dan Knight wrote: To make a long

little wobble

Slight wobble in 12 inch G4 PB when sitting on a flat surface. All four of the rubber feet are in, none missing. It appears that all are not even. When sitting on a flat surface 3 of the feet will touch but 1 doesn't. The one that doesn't touch is the one on the battery. The gap is very small -

Re: Virtual PC 95 and Airport?

I use VPC all the time on my TiBook. VPC doesn't have to recognize the card separately. Just set up the Airport on the Mac side,and Windows will use whatever networking you have set up. Hope that helped. -Hal On Friday, August 8, 2003, at 12:03 AM, Michael J. Granado wrote: Hello,

rd drive is NOT user-upgradeable in any iBook models. I'm only mentioning this because I saw in yout sig that you have an iBook 700. That's a lot tougher to upgrade and will void your warranty. -Hal -- G-Books is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and... Small Dog Electronic

d, so you don't need an external power supply. I'm not sure if they still make them though. I just sold my spare on the swaplist. Hope that helps. -Hal On Sunday, March 9, 2003, at 07:17 AM, Vicki Andreotti wrote: > Hal, > From another novice: Is a PC card data shuttle hard dr
